Chapter Seventy-Three: Interest
After telling Ling Yichen about the news he got from Xiyan, Qing Li handed him the list of strongholds.
The large and small shops, storefronts, inns, and houses above are all listed carefully, and the people involved don't know how much, including even the powerful people in the court, the princes and their descendants!
This is obviously calculated by someone with a heart!
The Jing family's Huamanlou is just a coincidence, or a bait. Now that I see this list, if I still firmly believe that the Jing family is plotting against me, it is easy to be unreasonable......
Ling Yichen frowned and locked the letterhead tightly, silent for a long time. Qing Li was not in a hurry, anyway, she had told him, it was his business to do what to do, she just begged Jing Xuan to be safe.
After a long time, Ling Yichen raised his eyes from the letterhead, his pupils were black, and he asked in a dumb voice, "Where did you get these?" ”
There was no doubt in his deep eyes, and he completely believed what Li Er said.
However, it is precisely because of faith that he will also carry it out.
But if these clues are followed, the results may be successful, but once the reason is asked, how can it be explained?
Could it be that she is the only one who has found out the stronghold of thieves?
Such a consequence is nothing more than Li'er's excessive reputation, which leads to a series of problems. He wouldn't want her to be so violent. Exposed in the eyes of those who have a heart.
What's more, he also knew that Li Er had never been interested in the affairs of the court, and even if he had the ability to reach the sky, it would be impossible to find out so much inside information in a short period of time!
Obviously, there is a special person to help investigate this matter, and it cannot be completed overnight.
Well, just take this person out and use it as a shield. Li Er can hide under the edge and not be suspicious of others.
Ling Yichen thought so, watching Qing Li's gaze become more and more focused and noncommittal. At all costs. She must not be involved in this matter!
Qing Li was slightly stunned, and soon understood his intentions.
Although she was moved by his meticulousness and thoughtfulness, she could not confess her face.
Yan has violated her principles by investigating these state affairs for her, and she can no longer let Wujimen become the target of the public in the Jianghu court.
How many people are eyeing that position, Xi Yan as a woman but succeeding the head of the door would not be able to fully convince the public, if it weren't for the iron and bloody and resolute handling of the past few years to establish her prestige, I don't know how many objections there would be.
Now. If those wolf ambitions are caught and get in, not only will Xiyan be under great pressure, but even Wujimen may also suffer a catastrophe!
Come to think of it. Qing Li smiled suddenly and casually, "As you can see, the mountain people have their own tricks. Her expression was relaxed, and the confident sparkle in her eyes seemed to indicate that what she said was true.
I remember Yan once told her. They are grasshoppers tied to a rope. One is prosperous, and one is lost.
But now that I think about it, it's not all.
A more appropriate metaphor, she argues, would be that they are people in reality and in the mirror.
That woman, from the first time she saw it, was already so strong that it made people feel sad and distressed.
Yan is a good piece of jade, but it lacks the carving of skilled craftsmen. And she. Now that she is allowed to show her brilliance, she can no longer be allowed to return to dust!
Yan is always hidden in the shadows. Be her backing, and if she chooses to be in the open, she must take on the responsibility of protecting her!
Because, once the mirror is broken, the person in the mirror will no longer exist......
His eyes became more and more firm, and Qing Li Qi smiled on his lips: "The thing is given to you, what to do with it is up to you, I am tired, so I will go back first." As soon as he finished speaking, Qing Li turned around and left, and Ling Yichen didn't stop him.
He knew that the result of going down was nothing more than her consistent insistence.
This woman, no matter how weak she looks, is actually stubborn inside! Now that it's decided, it's going to be hard to get her back.
But is she trying to protect the person who is looking up the news for her? I don't want that person to be involved, so I'd rather bear it myself......
Li'er, why can you be so good to others?
Whether it's Jing Xuan or that person, they are all on your heart.
However, you can't, and you can turn back once in a while. Looking back, there is one person who also needs your attention!
Silently looking at Qing Li's dashing and departing figure, the corners of Ling Yichen's mouth curled slightly bitterly.
Looking up at the hazy moonlight beyond the heavy clouds, he sighed softly and closed his eyes.
You have someone you want to protect, and I want to protect you!
……
For the next few days, Kyoto was almost in a state of high tension, because at any given moment, a group of people could suddenly break into the shop and conduct an all-round inventory of the shop.
Then, the original ordinary guy boss in the store suddenly became a martial arts master, fighting to the death with the people of the criminal department.
However, the people sent by the Criminal Department are all elites and are well prepared, even if they lose a little, they do not affect it, and they still win every battle.
Later, the people knew that such a big move by the Criminal Department was to eradicate Xichuan's spies.
Everyone is a patriot and a family person, and naturally they have expressed their support for such an action. And the criminal department is accurate one by one, which is really not amazing!
Later, after some inquiring, I learned that the prince used special means to get the accurate news.
The glorious deeds of the god of war have always been praised and praised, and some people even say that if there is a prince in the world, ink and wash can live in peace for a day. It is precisely because of this that everyone exaggerated a lot of the skills of the prince, so they did not doubt such rumors.
Because of this, Ling Yichen's status among the people has risen to a higher level.
At the same time, in a post house in Kyoto, the exquisite and luxurious environment and quiet and tranquil atmosphere seem to be incompatible with the chaos and heat outside.
The elegant man in blue sat on the carved mahogany chair in front of the desk, flipping over the thick pile of letterheads on the table with a casual expression, and his clear eyes were full of Qinghua but could not see through it at all.
"The way to govern the country should be based on the monarch and the country should be established by soldiers......" The man muttered the words on the paper, and the corners of his mouth playfully hooked up a curvature.
Is the king supreme and the kingdom ruled by soldiers? Not bad......
He took out another one casually, and his slender eyes swept slightly, revealing a few fine lights, "Gentleman, Zhou Ye." Commoners, water also. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat......"
The man chuckled, "Shouldn't we say that the people take food as the sky, so they take the people as the foundation and promote agriculture?" ”
His eyes swept downward, and sure enough, it was exactly as expected.
"Haha......" The man chuckled and put the letterhead back down.
It turns out that the so-called way of governing the country is all the same, and after reading so much, it is much the same......
Feeling bored, he picked up the teacup that had been set aside and took a sip. There was a crisp knock on the door, and the man raised his eyes slightly and said, "Come in." ”
A woman in black walked in quickly, bowed down and clenched her fists and said, "Master, all the other thirty-nine strongholds in Ink Kyoto have been seized, and now, only this post house is left!" Please do your best to move. ”
The woman raised her head angrily, and her beautiful and enchanting face was actually Mother Feng, who was full of flowers!
Xichuan has been deployed in ink for so many years, and now that she has fallen short, why is she not angry? But she also knew that she couldn't be rash, so now, she had to swallow this breath in her stomach!
The man in blue was not in a hurry, glanced at her lightly, and said with a smile: "Mei Niang, where is your patience?" After following me for so long, can't you still hold your breath? ”
He calls himself me, and at this age and bearing, he is Gu Shaojue, the monarch of Xichuan Kingdom!
Mei Niang was slightly stunned, quickly adjusted her feelings, and hugged her fists again and said, "Yes, Mei Niang knows her mistake." She bowed her head and looked at Gu Shaojue with absolute surrender.
This man, who ascended the throne at the age of fifteen, has been in power for seven years, making wise and arbitrary decisions, and at the same time being ruthless, and has long been respected and praised by the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. She was glad to be able to work under such a master.
Gu Shaojue got up and walked to the window and looked at the bright daylight outside the window.
It's only been a few days, and the sky has changed......
Seeing that Gu Shaojue still didn't move, Mei Niang couldn't help but feel anxious, "Master, Ling Yichen has already brought someone over here, so the master should go first." ”
There was obvious concern in her tone, but when she mentioned Ling Yichen, she obviously gritted her teeth and said it.
If it weren't for him, how could the master's years of planning be ruined overnight? That person will be the biggest obstacle to Xichuan's annexation of ink!
Hearing the resentment in Mei Niang's words, Gu Shaojue turned around with a smile, "What, do you think I lost to Ling Yichen?" ”
Mei Niang was stunned, immediately knelt down, and said tremblingly: "Mei Niang doesn't dare." The master did not lose! The master is only temporarily at a disadvantage! I'll be able to turn over soon! ”
In her opinion, the master definitely has this ability.
Gu Shaojue laughed loudly, "It's okay, if you lose, you lose, and I can't afford to lose!" From the moment he ascended the throne, he was prepared for everything.
Being a man is not afraid of losing, but what he is afraid of is that he still does not wake up after losing......
His eyes narrowed slightly, and Gu Shaojue's thin lips suddenly raised, "But...... Mei Niang, you have to remember that I didn't just lose to Ling Yichen! "There is another one, which is the trump card that is hidden!
Mei Niang raised her eyes and asked in astonishment, "What does the master mean?" "Apart from Ling Yichen, is there anyone else who can make the master willing to admit defeat?
Why didn't she know that there were still such characters in ink?
Sure enough, even Mei Niang was deceived......
Gu Shaojue sighed softly, and slowly spit out a person's name: "Qing Li......"
The long and deep voice was so light that it was almost unheard, but the faint excitement and gentleness in the words were like treating a treasure that she cherished, and this kind of care made Mei Niang tremble.
"The princess!" She exclaimed in surprise, and at the same time couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Gu Shaojue's expression.
A soft and warm smile hung on his face, different from his usual habitual smile, this time, the smile went straight to the bottom of his eyes, and the joy and pampering that were shallow but could not be ignored were all showing his interest bit by bit.
Interest in a woman! (To be continued......)
